Christiaan Eijkman shared the Nobel Prize in 1929 for the discovery of vitamins. Eijkman went to Java to isolate the pathogen ca

using beriberi, an illness that appeared to be contagious as it was common in prisons and among ship crews. Eijkman noticed that chickens fed a diet of white rice also suffered from a similar disorder. When the chickens were fed a diet of red rice, the chickens quickly recovered. What can Eijkman safely infer at this point from his observations? (5 points)
a
Diet may be the cause of beriberi, but more research is needed.
b
Humans with symptoms similar to those of chickens should change their diet.
c
White rice contains little nutritional value for humans and chickens.
d
Beriberi is most certainly not a pathogen.

Answer:

a. Diet may be the cause of beriberi, but more research is needed.

Explanation:

As you can see in the question above, when the hens' diets were changed, they no longer showed signs similar to those caused by beriberi. Which means that there may be a relationship between the incidence of beriberi and food. However, this result may be just a coincidence, or it may not occur in humans in the same way that it occurs in chickens, which leads to the need for more scientific research carried out to test the relationship between the incidence of beriberi and the food of humans.

These researches have already been carried out and currently, it is already known that beriberi is indeed related to vitamin B1 deficient food.

balu736 [363]

Answer:

The correct answer is option A) "Sequence of bases".

Explanation:

Even though DNA most of the time is comprised entirely of only four different nucleotide bases (adenine, thymine, guanosine and citosine), it is the sequence of these bases that allows DNA to carry a vast amount of hereditary information. The genes that carry the hereditary information are translated according to the sequence of the DNA bases. The information is translated by triplets of bases (codons) that correspond to different amino acids that are added to new synthesized proteins during translation.

Pls help!!!
Bingel [31]

Answer:

Try this.

Explanation:

       I'm not too sure because the teacher never gave me enough information (Need Bigger Graph). Get bigger graph paper as it says "The X-axis should be years and the Y-axis should be coal production." On the X-axis (Horizontal Line) write "Years" and on the Y-Axis (Vertical Line) write "Coal Production."

Now, your gonna start listing all the years on the X-Axis 1996 through 2011, And on the Y-Axis list all the coal productions 145 and all the numbers through 634. Make sure you have the regions, Appalachian, Interior and Western.

     I'm sorry if this didn't help, this is what I did and it helped me, I thought it might help you too.
